So football is a contest to see who can use the most timeouts? What would calling a timeout have gained them?

It's a minor miracle it's only 10-3 at half. Doesn't feel as such. If the coaches can make some adjustments, maybe they could steal this one late. Unfortunately, I don't have much confidence in said coaches.

How do you adjust when you are lacking talent?

All the adjustments in the world cannot alter the fact that this team is lacking in the talent department.

Make simple tackles. Catch easy fucking passes that any pro should make and this game is likely tied

Or probably not.

That assumes they could gotten into the endzone which runs counter to how the season has gone. The Lions are a medicore team talentwise. They are playing like it.

A screen pass is an example of an adjustment when you can't block anyone and facing constant penetration. Plenty of coaches make them with inferior talent. Harbaugh and Co. did so in the Orange Bowl to almost pull out a game where they looked overmatched for 3 quarters+.

They say to take advantage of Ebron. If only he could catch the damn ball.

Lions lack discipline...players do stupid shit that elite teams dont. They seem poorly coached and outmatched in chess against better NFL coaches.

Lions lack talent.

That is why they are losing. The Seahawks are just better.

I think the lions 1st round pick has to be someone in the front 7 on defense.

Don't you have to be outside the tackle box to throw it in the stands like that?

I was listening to TheMZone with Marcus Ray yesterday and he was talking about how that coaching staff didn't even watch film on recruits, it was all about their star rankings. No wonder Rawls was passed over by D.Green

There was no offensive line to get him any help. I think we still would have had the same number of 1 yard runs.

Come on Lions. Detroit needs one big play to turn this game around. Seattle is farting it away.
